It is a carbon fiber board, however I would not personally start off the platform with that board...mainly because of how expensive it is. Most phase five boards won't get damaged from starting from the platform. It can be a little sketchy to start from the platform, and you always run the risk of shoving the board into the transom of the boat. When you kick the board into the transom you can crack the noise of the board, and scratch your gel coat....sad day

So we were out yesterday and I found that with 2 people in the boat (approx 325lbs total) I needed to dump out about 100-200 lbs to get the goofy wave to clean up.. regular is fine with both sides full. When we added one more person the goofy wave cleaned up with everything full
